My full review and all the details are posted here https://houseofhipsters.com/biltmore-country-club-barrington/ The board made their decision when masking in schools was a hot topic. Before anyone is approved for membership, an email is sent out to existing members, asking for guidance. Members, who knew I was more cautious when it came to masking and my kids, wrote the board asking them to reject our application because of it. The board will refuse to tell you why you were rejected, they just respond by saying, "We stand by our decision". To boot, they informed us by sending a FedEx Express letter that arrived the day after Christmas, and my husband opened and read said letter out loud in front of my kids and parents. The board members did not take the time to meet my family or talk to us. We were left dumbfounded. Biltmore is literally high school all over again. You have the popular girls members and legacy members with a lot of money, and if they don't like you, you won't be allowed into their club. My family's rejection upset and surprised A LOT of people because I'm also a local business owner, a founding member of the Barrington Women In Business group, and President of the Biltmore Oaksbury mom group. Save yourself the time, money, and stress and steer clear of Biltmore. It's not worth the hype. Apply at Barrington Hills Country Club, Wynstone Country Club, or Long Grove.

My son and daughter-in-law had their wedding at the Grove this past month. Their day was great…read morethanks to all their wonderful vendors they worked with but the unprofessionalism of the new banquet manager at The Grove's was ridiculous. It started by her adding approximately $1000 dollars of additional "charges" that were clearly 'included' in the contract if the banquet manager would have read the contract. The bride had to exchange countless emails/texts proving these additional items were included before the manager would remove them from the bill and would never acknowledge her mistakes. The banquet manager did not write most things down during discussions and this resulted in a lack of confidence that the wedding day would go as planned. It simply added unnecessary stress to the bride, groom and parents to the point as we had to remind her of the same things over and over again and even make 'day of' fixes to things that were incorrect. We lost so much confidence in this woman that we requested the old banquet manager be present the day of the wedding to help assure things would go smoothly. The final straw was when The Grove overcharged for the wedding cake by approximately $500 and blamed it all on the bakery. We reached out directly to the bakery and compared their invoice to the invoice The Grove provided and the difference of $500 was obvious. The problem was that BOTH invoices had the bakery's logo on them. So ONE of those invoices was 'doctored' to make it look like the bakery overcharged The Grove which was proven not true by the bakery! This entire thing appeared very dishonest and misleading. We brought this up to The Grove a couple days after the wedding(as to not affect the wedding day) and the Club Manager at The Grove promised to look into it. It's now been 2+ weeks with several emails and phone calls and NO RESPONSE AT ALL from The Grove!! All we are asking for is an explanation and a reimbursement for the obvious over charge. Anyone having their event at The Grove, please make sure you check your invoice thoroughly and be prepared to micro-manage the banquet manager on a daily basis leading up to your special day!

Absolutely Appalling Experience - Do Better, Grove Country Club…read more I'm writing this review out of sheer frustration after being completely ignored for over two weeks by the management at The Grove Country Club. I hosted a surprise party for my husband's 60th birthday on March 28 -- a milestone moment that should have been joyful and memorable. Instead, it was an absolute disaster from the moment I walked in. I have never in my life been treated with such disregard by a so-called "professional" venue. Let me be perfectly clear: the service was atrocious, the staff was untrained and indifferent, and the experience was utterly humiliating. Your manager, Jake, promised a follow-up "in a couple of days." It's now been over 3 weeks. No call. No email. Nothing. That level of indifference to a paying customer is disgraceful and shows a complete lack of professionalism and accountability. Your bartender disappeared for over an hour -- allegedly hiding under the bar table. Yes, really. No explanation given. The liquor we received wasn't even what I ordered. The food? Inedible. I had requested a Greek menu -- what I got was a lazy, flavorless mess. The chicken and pork were dry and unseasoned, the vegetables were undercooked and tasteless, and the Briam? I've had better versions in college cafeterias. How any of this passed as "catering" is beyond me. To make matters worse, your staff helped themselves to desserts before the guests were even served. Then, at the end of the night, we were told to pour our own drinks from bottles tossed in a bucket. I paid for a full-service bar package, not a frat party. The lack of professionalism was staggering. Lisa, one of your staff members, was sweet and kind and trying to hold things together. But not even she could salvage the wreck this night turned into. I had to micromanage every detail of my own event, something I paid you to do. And what's your idea of an apology? A $100 gift card. A token gesture that does nothing to make up for a night ruined, food wasted, and memories tainted. Do you really think I'd wanna go back there after my experience with the horrible food? All I've asked for is a serious conversation with ownership. I have been more than patient. But i write all my reviews because I continue to be ignored, Put yourself in my position: would you be okay with this? I strongly advise others to think twice before booking anything at The Grove Country Club. My experience was not just disappointing -- it was insulting.

I don't play golf nor live in the burbs so I don't have much use for a Country Club in Long Grove…read more However, I've been to my share of bridal showers here at the Twin Orchard Country Club. And they've definitely got the bridal shower thing down to a science so I can see why so many of my friends have chosen to have their showers here (or their hostesses have chosen to have them here). The bridal showers always start with appetizers out in the lobby. Like most social events the appetizers here at Twin Orchard Country Club are better than the entrees so eat up if you find yourself here for a shower! At the shower I attended yesterday they had yummy crispy pizza, as well as a delish looking tuna tartare, which I'd be about if it wasn't for the baby in my tummy. I've had lunch entrees that have ranged from salads (my fave) to grilled chicken and of course you always have to save room for dessert, which is usually cake in the shape of a ring box. YUM! This food is all served in a spacious room, perfect for setting up lots of round tables and a long table of gifts. My only complaint is that Twin Orchard takes forever to get to from the city (especially when there's lots of traffic), but I'm guessing most of their members live in the area.

They put out a remarkable spread, feeding upwards of 500 people high quality, delightfully paired, and perfectly prepped and proportioned. Staff are appropriately available, courteous, capable and always on point. They run the events they host like a well oiled machine, making themselves almost fade into the background of the party itself. The restrooms are well kept and spacious. They recently renovated and opened a back area up- it gives the area a modern, yet warm feel. I would highly suggest it for a wedding (the grounds are beautiful when it's not 11 degrees out and snowing!) GPS will send you into the woods if you don't pay close attention. I'm very grateful for Twin Orchards hosting us every year, they never disappoint. Before I leave you, let me share this. DESSERT.

Moving on sorry - the golf is amazing so many courses. So much history. The tournaments they have held are beyond anything u have ever experienced when it comes to golf. Watch tiger beat Sergio in 99. Loved the bmw championship. Got three fist bumps from tiger periodically over that weekend. Then the food is amazing. The people that clean ur golf shoes are wizards.
